Marriage date of 1818 is questionable. Possible typo ?

Thank you Liz. The omission of researching Elizabeth was totally my neglect. That omission has now been corrected with the adding of Elizabeth and also a merge request for the duplicate which we both know about. thanks Liz

I think there must have been two daughters named Elizabeth (if the information for the one listed in the text is correct).

In text, birth/baptism of Elizabeth Abernathy, citing Bristol Parish records, is born 4/12/1721 and baptized 10/9/1721.

But page 276 of said records has

"Eliz'a D: of Robert and Mary Abernathy Born 20th May 1730 Bap't 20th Sep'tr."

I could not find a listing for Elizabeth born 1721.

UNKNOWN-200309 and Harwell-51 appear to represent the same person because: I'm not allowed to "Create a Merge" because I'm not on the trusted list.
